3. What Information do we collect? |
In various areas of this website we ask you for information. This may include such information
as your name, delivery address, telephone number, your use of products and services. If you
purchase items or services from the EDW online stores, it is usual for our third party processing agent to
request for additional credit details and related payment information. Please note that the
privacy of the details you submit to the designated third party processing agent will be
subject to a separate set of privacy terms and conditions. These can be found at the
third party processing agent's website.
|
| |
For example: |
| |
|
When you place a sales order with us we need to know your name, e-mail address, delivery address, as appropriate. This enables us to process your request. |
|
We might ask you if you want to enter a competition or promotion. For this we will usually ask for an e-mail address and/or mobile phone number. |
|
We may ask you for information about yourself and your phone use to help you decide which, if any, of our products and services would suit you best. |

7. Cookies |
A "cookie" is a piece of information, like a tag, which some websites create on your PC which
identifies your PC whenever you visit that website. In order to provide you with the best
possible online experience, EDW may create cookies when you visit the EDW site. Cookies may
be used to help you to limit the frequency with which you will see particular advertisements;
to keep track of how many times you do specific things whilst using EDW to track where you
have come from if you were referred to our website; to provide you with self-help information;
and to make our email offers more relevant to you by taking into account your response to
previous email offers.
Our cookies will not be used to analyse your visits to other sites. Agents of EDW, who assist
in the serving, and targeting of advertisements, promotions and other marketing messages may
use cookies to collect anonymous data such as how many people have viewed a particular page
each day. Such agents EDW may provide such data collected by cookies to third parties in
certain limited circumstances to carry out tasks such as billing or data storage. Data
collected by cookies will not otherwise be passed to any third party. You have the ability
to accept or decline cookies. Most PCs automatically accept them but you can modify your
browser settings to decline if you so wish. If you decline cookies, some aspects of the EDW
site may not work on your PC and you may not be able to access areas you want on the website.
For this reason we recommend that you accept cookies.

You must not share your password for any message services or Portal access. Your passwords are

your own protection.
We are constantly reviewing our procedures to protect your personal data from unauthorised
access, accidental loss and/or destruction. Please be aware that communications over the
Internet, such as e-mails/instant chat services etc, are not secure unless they have been
encrypted. Your communications may route through a number of countries before being

for any unauthorised access or loss of personal information that is beyond our control.
Please note also that we may use overseas facilities to process or back up its information.
As a result, we may transfer your personal information to our overseas facilities for storage.
